[Manu Vatuvei]

yep, correct. Only one throw from any of the others even vaguely threatened, while Val threw over 20m every time.

Awesome stuff!

NZ currently sitting at #14 in the overall medal rankings, not bad for a country with a population less than that of Sydney!

LOL no that's the truth. I grew up hating the Aussies sporting teams, things don't change just coz I live here

 

[Rovelli]

Men's Team Pursuit team qualified 2nd for the first round.

Win against the 7th ranked Spainards and they are in the medal races.

Good effort for them to make the final and then come 5th. Not a bad effort.
